Hello All,
I need some clarrification on using listen-on & listen-on-v6 option.
In BIND9, I understand that by specifying listen-on-ipv6 { any; };
named will listen on all IPv6 and IPv4 interfaces in IPv6
machine.
Then under this scenario what is the use of specifying the listen-on
option??
Suppose I have system with four interface two IPv4 (A,B) & 2 IPv6
(C,D).
By specifying listen-on option by following
options {
listen-on { A ; };
listen-on-v6 { any ; };
};
Will named listen only to the A,C,D interfaces and not B??
Can I ask only interface A to listen on particular port??
To put it short, what is the use of specifying the listen-on
option
when the listen-on-ipv6 any option is specified in the named.conf
file ??
Thanks,
With Regards,
D.Dhana.
